Food is the most important thing for the people. With the advent of the year of the tiger, what is the situation of China's grain production in the new year? Can grain harvest well? How can the Chinese continue to secure their jobs? Granary abundance As a large country with a population of 1.4 billion, China has always regarded food as a top priority, regarded the problem of Chinese people's "eating" as a "big" thing, and paid close attention to food production. In recent years, China's grain harvest has been bumper year after year. China novel coronavirus pneumonia and extreme natural disasters are the most unfavorable factors. The data released by the China National Bureau of statistics show that in 2021, China's grain output exceeded 1 trillion and 300 billion jin for seven consecutive years, reaching a new high of 1 trillion and 365 billion 700 million jin. At the same time, China has sufficient grain reserves. According to official data, at present, China's total grain inventory is sufficient and at an all-time high. Taking wheat as an example, under the situation of successive bumper harvests, the inventory continues to increase, which can meet the consumption demand of the Chinese people for one and a half years. Looking forward to the year of the tiger, industry experts believe that "abundant granaries" will still be the "main melody" of China's grain supply situation. Challenges remain While the grain supply is sufficient, we should also see that China's grain production is still facing many challenges this year. Novel coronavirus pneumonia, a researcher at the Institute of agricultural resources and agricultural regionalization, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Jiang Wenlai, told the China news agency that the international grain price hit a new high of nearly ten years in 2021. The spread of new crown pneumonia and loose monetary influence, coupled with climate change, caused the extreme drought and flooding risk in some grain producing areas. The possibility of a substantial decline is low. High national grain prices will have an impact on China's grain prices. Novel coronavirus pneumonia and trade protectionism, Li Guoxiang, a researcher at the China Academy of Social Sciences, said that the international food supply chain was impacted and the stability of grain imports was also facing challenges. "In addition, the main grain producing areas in China are still at risk of being affected by drought and flood disasters. In addition, the rising prices of agricultural materials such as pesticides and chemical fertilizers and the continuous increase of production costs such as land rent, seeds and labor will also have a certain impact on grain production." Jiang Wen said. Ye Xingqing, director and researcher of the Rural Economic Research Department of the development research center of the State Council, said that China is a large country with a large population. The demand for food will continue to grow, the demand for improved food will increase, the demand for high-quality rations and feed grain will increase, and the cultivated land resources are limited. Therefore, we should always tighten the string of food security. save against a rainy day In the face of the complex international grain pattern and the challenges faced by domestic grain production, China paid more attention to food security at the central economic work conference and the central rural work conference, emphasizing that ensuring the supply of primary products is a major strategic issue, and the Chinese people's rice bowl should be firmly in their own hands at all times. In order to ensure that the Chinese people hold their jobs for a long time, experts pointed out that China should adhere to the road of "hiding grain in the land" and "hiding grain in technology". Ye Xingqing said that from the perspective of long-term supply guarantee, China should be based at home and adhere to "storing grain in the land" and "storing grain in technology". We should resolutely curb the "non-agricultural" of cultivated land, prevent the "non grain" of cultivated land, hold the red line of 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land, improve the quality of cultivated land and speed up the construction of high-standard farmland; Promote scientific and technological progress with seed industry as the core, increase grain yield per unit area, develop mechanization and reduce grain production costs. Jiang wenlai said that to ensure food security, we should also ensure that the same responsibilities of the party and the government are truly effective. There should be a reasonable layout. The main production area, main sales area and production and marketing balance area should ensure the area and output. Ensure that grain production meets the set targets. In addition, the price of agricultural materials has risen too fast recently. Officials need to pay attention to the trend of agricultural means of production, increase farmers' grain income through various ways and mobilize farmers' enthusiasm for growing grain. In the face of increasingly frequent extreme disaster weather, we should also take corresponding precautions. In view of the impact of international grain price fluctuations on China, Li Guoxiang pointed out that the obvious increase in international prices is mainly wheat and oil. China can be self-sufficient in rations such as wheat, and soybeans and oil will continue to rely on imports. However, according to the government's plan, China will expand the planting of soybeans and oil this year, so as to reduce its dependence on imports and enhance its ability to resist external risks.
